The Plough - Clifton Hampden

Clifton Hampden, Abingdon, Oxfordshire

Visit this place quite regularly to have a few pints with friends.Really traditional country pub ,very cosy old thatched roof pub.The owner and landlord is a really nice friendly chap with great sense of humour . We had noted that the pub served chinese food and at first never thought of trying it as we were just out for a pint,that was until one day when feeling a bit peckish decided to try some food there ,and from then i we were hooked as it is undoubtedly the best chinese food for miles around and yet sadly still very much undiscovered.Now it may sound like i am the landlord or one of his friends trying to cheaply promote but i can assure you i am not ,just go there and try the food and you will realize the truth

Great pub with really nice polite staff ,always a pleasant relaxed atmosphere especially in winter time in front of their fantastic fireplace.Beer is kept really well and never had a bad pint there .Myself and a couple of mates used the pub quite a lot because it fitted our criteria of a great country pub serving good ale, HOWEVER then came the bombshell one evening when we visited and found that our usual pint of Lovibonds Henley Gold had reached the staggering price of £4 which i am afraid was a bridge to far for us to cross,never been there since which is a real shame ,come people you will say why didnt you complain to us but my answer would be ,you know that is over the top for a pint of beer,maybe you just want restaurant clients i dont know ,but if you want regular drinkers then please bring down your prices a bit

JadeKonz Thank you very much for your comments, we do understand that £4 does seem high for a pint, its due to the increase from that particular supplier and it was not our choice to increase it but rather our hand was forced. We discussed with many locals removing it from the bar but we were told they would rather pay the extra and keep it rather than losing it all together! Our real ales are still very competitively priced at £3.30 and yes we still warmly welcome all drinkers to our beautiful gastro pub. Hope this answers your doubts! Chequers Team

Had not been here for quite a while and have to say the food was still to a high standard ,however i did note that the service was nowhere near as friendly or attentive as my previous visit over a year ago ,we were there late on in the evening and also felt pressured to skip coffee and post meal chat to allow the restaurant to close ,not a pleasant end to a nice meal

Prezzo - Didcot - Didcot

Only went here because i got some vouchers online offering a good deal,so went in with open mind not expecting too much after reading previous reviews .Well i must say, i must either have different taste buds, or have gone to a different restaurant as the whole experience was top notch ,service was polite and not rushed ,the food was very well presented and really tasty and the portions were of a generous size.I have been to Al Gusto down the road too and found it very average compared to Prezzo. Only criticism i have about the place is i did think the drinks a tad on the expensive side even for a restaurant
